Capítulo 22: Chapter 22

After waiting for a few dwindling seconds, I laugh. It is the first time in almost three days that I have been totally alone.

And the thing is, a day ago, I was begging and begging for a moment like this. But now, true loneliness enters my chest.

I suppose I have become accustomed to his stalker-like attitude, his quirky laugh, his exceedingly alluring looks. Although I hate to say it, Caleb has grown on me.

Looking around at my surroundings, I smile as I spot a stream a couple meters away. The water almost crystal clear and not surrounded by pointy rocks, it will suit my purposes well.

With a determined look, I grab a long, thick stick and use it as a cane. The beautiful oasis of slightly heated miracle water winks at me as I reach it, stumbling with my stick.

Scanning the area once more, I become satisfied that no one is watching. Not that anyone would want to watch anyways.
